The first book started out strong. However, the second book is set-up to deliver answers about Auri's powers, but only delivers halfway. It does at least give a timeframe for her development in amongst a lot of action sequences, so it's not entirely disappointing.
The third book could have been truly epic. It had action, adventure, romance, and all the feels. It also had a minor temporal glitch in the editing that drove me mad for a minute. Especially since every other time travel aspect of this book went off with barely a hitch.
All that said, those were really the only negatives I could give the series. It didn't quite hold up to hopes and expectations, but it was still a great read. I hardly put the story down. The characters were fun and exciting, if a little over-sexed for teenagers, and the action was non-stop. It a definite for anyone that likes sci-fi space adventures or superheroes in general.
Whether you like Science Fiction books or not I think Aurora Rising is worth giving a chance to. I don’t normally read Sc-Fi BUT i liked the books it’s more than just about space and Sci-Fi, it’s about friendship and family the bonds it takes to make or break it.
It did take me a few chapters of the book to really get hooked on the story but it’s definitely worth it‼️
These books are told from 7 points of view from the crew. The characters were amazing, loved the character development. This crew was so cool to watch them grow from considering each other outcasts to the team they were. I loved the humor and sarcasm that characters would throw at each other
The last book took a turn I was NOT expecting even got a little emotional but I thought it was a good ending to the trilogy

A ragtag squad of misfit space cadets must work together to save the galaxy! Witty and hilarious from page one, this series is an absolute page turner with an endearing found family and some super swoony romance!
